How do I apply?

If you are interested in applying for an enterprise loan, follow the enquiry link and complete the short form about your business or proposed business. We will then email you to confirm if your proposition meets our eligibility criteria. If you are eligible to apply, we will invite you to send us your business plan, cashflow forecast and personal credit report.

We ask for a personal credit report becasue enterprise Loans from BCELF are made to applicants as a personal loan; the client(s) then introduce the loan advance as capital into the business. We consider each application on its own merits. Therefore, if applicants can demonstrate that they have dealt responsibly in clearing previous bad debts this will not adversely affect applications.

You can check the progress of your application by contacting Christine Eaton at christine.eaton@bcelf.org.uk or on 07875 199254.
